That is pretty bad though. And it is typical of a knee-jerk response...the issue emerged and everybody jumped on the bandwagon.Living in Australia, I realise that my atmosphere (especially around my university) is highly tolerant compared to most. The institutions and most of the news publications have a robust and rigorous equity policy and most of the bits of society I move around in (i.e. the academics and the high-acheivers) are mostly accepting of something that I think should be a given. It's still a problem here and we do have reports of hate crimes for any number of reasons, but from the various stories of abuse, broken friendships and families, disownments etc. that I hear from various contacts in the US, I'm left wondering just how bad it is in the Bible-belt (mid-latitudinal US).
